Yeah, what ever happened to that lead on the recent attack in Europe? (I can no longer keep track of which attack involved what.)

The Guardian is pathetic. No description almost always means what you’d think it means. If it was a native British man doing the stabbing it would likely even be in the headline.

He was just upset because the Brits didn’t set him up in a posh apartment and give him all the money he could spend.

Gee, a Taser was “deployed”.

When it rains in England, do the police deploy “umbrellas” against it?

I would preferred the police spokesman to say about how they captured the assailant in the following manner, very British:

“We showed him who was in CHARGE”.

The Guardian’s headlines (a red paper);

“Police Taser Somebody: SHOCKING”
